Remote is disabled by default, but there is --allow-remote to enable it.
Also check out https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/14977
because you can have some problems with it.

Colin Arnott:
> As a user of firefox, I am aware that when firefox is running, you can call 
> [$ firefox <url>] or [$ firefox --new-tab <url>] and it will add a new tab to 
> your existing firefox process. This is really handy if you would like another 
> process to open a link in Firefox.
> 
> With the tor-browser-bundle, despite the [--help] option indicates that "All 
> unrecognized arguments will be passed to the browser". However, when you 
> launch [$ tor-browser-en --new-tab <url>], [$ tor-browser-en <url>] or even 
> [$ tor-browser], you get the following error:
> 
> "Tor Browser is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, 
> you must first close the existing Tor Browser process, or restart your 
> system."
>
